UHezekheli 22
1 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika kimi lisithi:
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
2 “Ndodana yomuntu, uzalahlulela na? Uzalahlulela na lelidolobho lokuchithwa kwegazi? Ngakho melana lalo kanye lezono zalo ezenyanyekayo
And you O son of humankind ¿ will you judge ¿ will you judge [the] city of blood and you will make known to it all abominations its.
3 uthi: Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: Wena dolobho elizilethela ukutshabalala ngokuchitha igazi phakathi kwakho njalo uzingcolisa ngokwenza izithombe,
And you will say thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh O city [which] sheds blood in [the] midst of it to come time its and it has made idols on itself to become unclean.
4 usube lecala ngenxa yegazi olichithileyo njalo usungcoliswe yizithombe ozenzileyo. Usulethe insuku zakho ekupheleni, lesiphetho seminyaka yakho sesifikile. Ngakho ngizakwenza ube yinto yokuklolodelwa ezizweni lenhlekisa emazweni wonke.
By blood your which you have shed you have become guilty and by idols your which you have made you have become unclean and you have brought near days your and you [masc] have come to years your there-fore I have made you a reproach to the nations and derision to all the lands.
5 Labo abaseduze kanye lalabo abakhatshana bazakuhoza, wena dolobho elidumazekileyo, eligcwele ukuxokozela.
The [nations] nearby and the [nations] far off from you they will deride you O unclean of name O great [one] of turmoil.
6 ‘Khangela ubone ukuthi yileyo laleyo inkosana yako-Israyeli ephakathi kwakho isebenzisa amandla ayo ekuchitheni igazi.
Here! [the] princes of Israel each to strength his they have been in you so as to shed blood.
7 Phakathi kwakho iphathe uyise lonina ngokweyisa; phakathi kwakho incindezele abezizweni, njalo yaphatha kubi izintandane labafelokazi.
Father and mother they have treated with contempt in you to the sojourner they have acted with oppression in [the] midst of you fatherless one and widow they have maltreated in you.
8 Uzeyisile izinto zami ezingcwele watshaphaza lamaSabatha ami.
Holy things my you have despised and sabbaths my you have profaned.
9 Phakathi kwakho kulabantu abahlebayo, abahlose ukuchitha igazi; phakathi kwakho kulalabo abadlela ezindaweni zokukhonzela entabeni benze lezenzo zesigweba.
People of slander they have been in you so as to shed blood and to the mountains they have eaten in you licentiousness they have done in [the] midst of you.
10 Phakathi kwakho kulalabo abangcolisa imibheda yaboyise; phakathi kwakho kulalabo abadlwengula abesifazane besesikhathini sabo, lapho bengahlanzekanga ngokomkhuba.
[the] nakedness of A father someone has uncovered in you [the] [woman] unclean of the menstruation they have humiliated in you.
11 Phakathi kwakho indoda yenza ukona okwenyanyekayo lomfazi kamakhelwane wayo, enye ingcolise umalukazana wayo ngendlela ehlazisayo; enye njalo idlwengula udadewabo, indodakazi kayise uqobo.
And a man - with [the] wife of neighbor his he has done abomination and a man daughter-in-law his he has defiled in wickedness and a man sister his [the] daughter of father his he has humiliated in you.
12 Phakathi kwakho abantu bayavuma ukuthengwa ukuba bachithe igazi; uthatha inzuzo lomvuzo odlulisileyo emalini ebolekisiweyo, uthole inzuzo engafanelanga kumakhelwane wakho umbamba ngamandla. Njalo usungikhohliwe, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
A bribe they have taken in you so as to shed blood interest and interest you have taken and you have made unjust gain neighbor your by oppression and me you have forgotten [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
13 Ngeqiniso ngizatshaya izandla zami ngibabaza inzuzo engafanelanga osuyenzile kanye legazi osulichithe phakathi kwakho.
And here! I will strike palm my concerning unjust gain your which you have made and on blood your which they have been in [the] midst of you.
14 Isibindi sakho sizaqinisela yini loba izandla zakho ziqine ngosuku ngiqondana lawe na? Mina Thixo sengikhulumile, njalo ngizakwenza lokho.
¿ Will it endure heart your or? will they be strong hands your to the days when I [am] about to deal with with you I Yahweh I have spoken and I will act.
15 Ngizakuhlakazela phakathi kwezizwe ngikuchithachithele emazweni; lokungcola kwakho ngizakuqeda.
And I will scatter you among the nations and I will disperse you among the lands and I will make an end of uncleanness your from you.
16 Lapho usungcolisiwe phambi kwezizwe, uzakwazi ukuthi mina nginguThixo.’”
And you will be profaned by yourself to [the] eyes of nations and you will know that I [am] Yahweh.
17 Ilizwi likaThixo laselifika kimi lisithi:
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
18 “Ndodana yomuntu, indlu ka-Israyeli isibe ngamanyala kimi. Bonke balithusi, lomnuso, lensimbi kanye lomthofi okusele phakathi kwemvutho. Kungamanyele esiliva.
O son of humankind they have become to me [the] house of Israel (dross *Q(K)*) all of them [are] copper and tin and iron and lead in [the] midst of a furnace dross silver they have become.
19 Ngakho nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi: ‘Ngoba lonke selibe ngamanyele, ngizaliqoqela eJerusalema.
Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh because have become all of you dross therefore here I [am] about to gather you into [the] middle of Jerusalem.
20 Njengabantu beqoqela isiliva, lethusi, lensimbi, lomthofi kanye lomnuso emvuthweni ukuba kuncibilikiswe ngomfutho womlilo, ngizaliqoqa kanjalo ngokuthukuthela kwami langolaka lwami ngilibeke phakathi kwedolobho ngilincibilikise.
[the] gathering of Silver and copper and iron and lead and tin into [the] middle of a furnace to blow on it fire to melt [it] so I will gather in anger my and in rage my and I will set down and I will melt you.
21 Ngizaliqoqa njalo ngizalivuthela ngolaka lwami oluvuthayo, njalo lizancibilikiswa phakathi kwalo.
And I will gather you and I will blow on you with [the] fire of wrath my and you will be melted in [the] midst of it.
22 Njengesiliva sincibilikiselwa phakathi kwemvutho, kanjalo lani lizancibilikiselwa phakathi kwalo, njalo lizakwazi ukuthi mina Thixo sengithululele ulaka lwami phezu kwenu.’”
Like [the] melting of silver in [the] midst of a furnace so you will be melted in [the] midst of it and you will know that I Yahweh I have poured out rage my on you.
23 Ilizwi likaThixo lafika futhi kimi lisithi:
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
24 “Ndodana yomuntu, tshono elizweni uthi, ‘Uyilizwe elingazange libe lezulu kumbe imikhizo ngosuku lwentukuthelo.’
O son of humankind say to it you [are] a land [which] not [is] cleansed it not rain its in a day of indignation.
25 Kulokucetshwa kwamacebo amabi ngamakhosana alo phakathi kwalo njengesilwane esibhongayo sidlithiza esikubuleleyo; adla abantu, athathe inotho kanye lezinto eziligugu, andise labafelokazi phakathi kwalo.
A conspiracy of prophets its [is] in [the] midst of it like a lion roaring tearing prey person[s] they have devoured treasure and precious thing[s] they have been taking widows its they have multiplied in [the] midst of it.
26 Abaphristi balo bephula umthetho wami njalo bahlambaza lezinto zami ezingcwele; kabehlukanisi phakathi kokungcwele okujayelekileyo; bafundisa besithi akulamehluko phakathi kokungcolileyo lokungangcolanga; njalo bavala amehlo abo ekugcineni amaSabatha ami, okwenza ngithukwe phakathi kwabo.
Priests its they have done violence to law my and they have profaned holy things my between a holy thing and a profane thing not they have made a distinction and between unclean [thing] and a clean [thing] not they have made known and from sabbaths my they have hidden eyes their and I have been profaned in midst of them.
27 Izikhulu zalo phakathi kwalo zinjengezimpisi zidlithiza ezikubuleleyo; zichitha igazi zibulale labantu ukuba zithole inzuzo engafanelanga.
Princes its in midst its [are] like wolves tearing prey to shed blood to destroy lives so as to make unjust gain unjust gain.
28 Abaphrofethi balo bacomba izenzo zazo ngemibono yamanga lokuhlahlula okungamanga. Bathi, ‘Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo Wobukhosi’ kodwa uThixo engakhulumanga.
And prophets its they have plastered for them whitewash [they are] seeing falsehood and [they are] divining for them falsehood [they are] saying thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh and Yahweh not he had spoken.
29 Abantu belizwe benza imisebenzi yokuqilibezela lokuphanga abanye; bancindezela abayanga labaswelayo, baphathe kubi labezizweni, babenqabele ukulunga.
[the] people of The land they have oppressed oppression and they have robbed robbery and [the] poor and [the] needy they have maltreated and the sojourner they have oppressed with not justice.
30 Ngadinga umuntu phakathi kwabo owayengakha umduli ame phambi kwami esikhaleni emele ilizwe ukuze ngingalitshabalalisi, kodwa ngamswela.
And I sought from them a person [who will] build a wall and [who will] stand in the breach before me for the land to not to destroy it and not I found [anyone].
31 Ngakho ngizathululela ukuthukuthela kwami phezu kwabo ngibaqede ngolaka lwami oluvuthayo, ngikwehlisele phezu kwamakhanda abo bonke abakwenzayo, kutsho uThixo Wobukhosi.”
And I have poured out on them indignation my with [the] fire of wrath my I have made an end of them conduct their on own head their I have requited [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
